GRAPEVINE, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Stephanie Alsbrooks, founder and CEO of defi SOLUTIONS, has been
selected as a Southwest region finalist for the EY
Entrepreneur of the Year®. This prestigious business recognition
program honors the most innovative business leaders in the country,
based on criteria of innovation, financial performance, risk and
personal commitment to their businesses and communities.

Stephanie started defi SOLUTIONS in 2012. Gathering a team of technology
experts, she set out to create an affordable, flexible, and scalable
loan origination system (LOS) and accomplished that goal, and won the
first client in six months. Today, defi SOLUTIONS is auto lending’s
leading LOS provider, having grown from six individuals to a team of
over 70 with a family of lending services that includes the loan
origination software with eContracting and digital loan documents, a
loan management and servicing system, analytics
and reporting, and the first and only integrated auto
loan portfolio marketplace.

“Stephanie’s that rare individual who can drive a fast-paced, growing
operation and still take time to communicate,” said Georgine Muntz, defi
SOLUTIONS COO. “She has incredible ideas that she brings to the table
and she’s able to listen, discuss, and gain agreement to rapidly create
valuable solutions for lenders while focusing on team and culture as a
competitive advantage.”

At defi SOLUTIONS, Stephanie and her leadership team have created an
environment of collaboration, innovation and teamwork. The company
strives to attract and retain the best talent and leverage new
technology to ensure that defi customers get the most benefit out of
their relationship with defi. Most employees have ownership or options
and all are kept in the know on company health and strategy, and they
are encouraged to move the company forward through teamwork and
challenging the status quo.

“What Stephanie has done is simply amazing,” said Glenn Munro, an early
defi SOLUTIONS investor and current vice president of sales. “I’ve known
her for a very long time, and it’s been incredible to watch her lead
this company and the industry. Stephanie’s not after the spotlight, but
she deserves it.”

The EY Entrepreneur of the Year regional winner will be announced at an
awards gala in Dallas on June 24th. Once regional winners are
announced, the national winner will be selected in November to compete
for the global award in 2018.
